Microsoft Senior Developer interview questions

These are deeper technical rounds that go beyond basic coding. Expect complex data structure and algorithm questions that involve multiple steps or require optimization. Questions often emphasize problem-solving under time constraints, requiring you to walk through your thought process out loud. You might encounter system design questions (especially for higher-level roles) that test your knowledge of designing scalable and efficient systems. For instance, you may be asked to design a system for file storage, message processing, or real-time data streaming.

The interview process was lengthy and drawn out due to the abysmal scheduling of both the engineering team and the human resources team. I was waiting almost 2 months to receive the final decision. Would not recommend!
